Hello everyone, I'm a new 2009.5 G8 Gxp owner residing in DC. I bought her when I returned from deployment with 12K miles on the odometer for a pretty good price. I upgraded from a 2004 Grand Prix GT2 (that I still own) and the difference is night and day as far as performance and fit and finish. I've only done a few modest mods such as a corsa exhaust, vararam otr intake, and a new high flow MAF from jegs. Just wanted to say hello!

Thanks Rich, I'm glad to be part of this community! I'm so happy I was finally able to make the purchase, I hardly see any G8's around the DMV (DC,Maryland,Virginia) area

Welcome drich, and yeah it's kind of nice not seeing many of us (unlike the camaro's, charger's, and mustang's). Hope to meet you in person at one of the meets soon.

drich-2k,
Welcome aboard. I live up the road from you a bit in Upper Marlboro. I too am a member of the CCG8CC. Aside from me, they are a great bunch of guys.
I have a feeling we'll be bumping into each other. (I drive a metallic red 09.5 GT)

Welcome from Bettendorf. Get your car ready to travel this way next year at the G8 meet. Hopefully will occur again in my city.
